Subject: utils_ovs: fix potential NULL-string dereference
X-Git-Url: https://git.verplant.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d3617d45b787a4856359740717bb6936c98a241a;p=collectd.git

utils_ovs: fix potential NULL-string dereference

In ovs_utils_get_map_value(), a potential NULL-string, returned
by YAJL_GET_STRING(), is passed to strcmp, and subsequently
dereferenced. Ensure that said string is non-NULL.
